Say I have a FreeBSD slice on my drive.

If I move the FreeBSD slice on the disk (e.g. if I grow a partition below
it), what's the simplest/safest way on stable to update the disklabel for
the new slice offset so FreeBSD will boot again?

(Something akin to "rerun lilo" for those with Linux experience.)

Thanks,

Randall
